Methodology

South Dakota evidence, EVS assumptions, uncertainty and release controls are shown in the adjacent audited dataset. Statewide totals are not local demand; paid, geocoded evidence is required before capital release.

Methodology

Scope
Method
South Dakota light-duty BEV and PHEV service-centre opportunity; state facts remain distinct from catchment hypotheses.
Control
No city stock invented.
Source hierarchy
Method
Federal/state primary sources first; Alliance/S&P for exact market snapshot; commercial locators only for live network context.
Control
Each quantitative claim carries a source token.
Definitions
Method
Separate BEV, PHEV, HEV, ICE/hybrid, ports, locations, public/private and dates.
Control
No cross-provider difference treated as growth.
Market model
Method
TAM × 30% service window × 20% independent pool × 35% launch reach.
Control
All percentages are EVS assumptions.
Economics
Method
Jobs × ARO = revenue; revenue × gross margin = gross profit; less fixed opex = EBITDA.
Control
Nominal USD, pre-tax, unlevered and incentive-free.
Decision rule
Method
Verified SAM remains null and executable SOM remains zero until gates close.
Control
No standalone or franchise release from TAM alone.
